Description | The Weekly Alaska Citizen, a Fairbanks-based publication from 1917 to 1920, offered a mix of global wire service and local interior news. Founded by J. Harmon Caskey, it aimed to reflect Democratic values, tracing back to Caskey's family ties to Ohio Governor Judson Harmon. Though its start date is disputed, it played a significant role in Alaskan media. The paper underwent frequency changes, spawning the Daily Alaska Citizen. Editors like Lafe E. Spray and Caskey himself led the publication. Despite shifts in management and title, The Weekly Alaska Citizen remained a vital source of news for Fairbanks residents. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1917 of this newspaper. |
